ME
“Me” was created with intentions of resembling Shepard Fairey’s “Hope” poster. The goal I attempted to achieve was a modern street art look, which is what Fairey is known for. Since the piece is a self-portrait, I still wanted it to resemble myself, so I incorporated different shades of the colors I am most fond of to my piece. The painting alone was not the entire project- it was only half the fun. Stretching the canvas myself, however, was only the beginning.
